there are 60 minutes per hour
24/60 = 0.4 miles per minute
0.4*5 = 2
they will ride 2 miles in 5 minutes
Before we can make sure that E is correct, we need to make the denominator is equal with questions and the choices or convert into decimal.
2/3 = 0.66
1/3=0.33
1/5=0.2
2/6=1/3 = 0.33
1/2 = 0.5
7/10 = 0.7
7/9 = 0.77
The question is :
2/3 < x < 7/9
0.66 < x < 0.77
We need to divide into 2 parts :
0.66 < x
x < 0.77
So we need to find the answer that x is greater that 0.66 and we got 7/10. And 7/10 is less than 7/9.
Hope this helps. Please ask if you don't understand.
